I agree with you. I don't think this is a Constitutional action because as far as I can tell the Congress could make clamshells our national currency if they wanted.

The Congress shall have Power To ...

...
To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;

To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States;

Yet it is certainly not a bad idea to help make the dollar accessible to the blind. It is common sense. I used to go to a shop at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard where people operated by the honor system with their purchases and the amount of money they gave to a blind cashier. Embossing the money or some other modification would have made his life a lot easier.

Hmm...the Constitution gives Congress the power to regulate the value of foreign money. Why don't they make one Euro equal to one dollar? It sure would help American tourists in Europe.
